For me, this is an excellent and enduring question. As folks have observed, an open growler is functionally an open pitcher. Pour your first glass at 6 PM and your last at 10 PM is flat. Regardless of how carefully it's filled, pop that top once and pour a glass and the carbonation is...

Maybe someday I'll try that

This ^

Have only spunded a batch or two but results were positive enough to make the modest purchase of a couple more units. These, along with a few dollars in additional gear should be worth it for the natural carbonation alone if not in addition to beverage enhancements. Also, they can be used to...

... yup. Good luck with your ciders -

Single handle AEBs work well in my setup. Purpose built carboy drying racks work well ... thoughts on what could be adapted as a similarly styled single handle drying rack? -

New territory for me ...

Sounds like what you described would be fine. I never really thought about that my ciders might have a yeast taste unless I'm sampling a few ounces from directly off the sediment. I would say no, seems you should pretty easily get clear, non-yeast tasting product. M02 has been a fast and clean...

Well who knows but maybe that perpetual beginner's luck runs out

Lately it seems I've turned out some quite remarkably average stuff. Anybody else identify with that losing your mojo feeling?

FWIW as mentioned an attempt at scooping sediment out of a corny worked surprising well

This is a compelling topic

I've wondered the same thing ... you've nicely written everything here

That's the way I see it also

On an amusing note, regarding the dynamics of the forum, I PM'ed this to an acquaintance here, "It's like there could be a pinned thread about dragging sticks to which someone could post a drawing of the new invention, the wheel, and yet following posts would continue to be about efforts to...

Yep, outcomes typically improve In the short time I've participated in this forum I've mentioned my best outcomes have been subsequent batches with additions of new ingredients on top of existing sediment and have never received a comment. I've learned it's just one more thing that's Not To Be...

The only thing I played well was copying some brilliant guys like @Bassman2003 who came before me 😆😆😆

Thanks for the reply! - yeah, I love this stuff

Yep

Looks like S0-4 and M02 are progressing similarly
